Jo NesbøWhat a country of lazy shits, with fucking hypocritical politicians claiming that people actually wanted to work if they could. Norwegians voted for the Socialist Party because it made it a human right to shirk their jobs, and who the hell wouldn't vote for a party that gave you three days off without a doctor's note, gave you carte blanche to sit at home and jerk off or go skiing or recover from a hangover?

The Progress Party was even more fucking infuriating, buying itself votes with tax cuts and hardly bothering to conceal the fact.
